First Returns Exceed 1970 First 'returns from the 114 diocesan parishes added to Special Gift donations brings the total to $314,427 in the Catholic Charities Appeal. "It is most heartening to see the initial parish reports," said Dr. David Costa, Jr. of New Bedford, diocesan lay chairman of the Appeal. "It indicates a most favorable response by the people in the parishes to the Most Rev. Daniel A. Cronin's call for funds for the charitable and social ser-
vice works of the diocese," he added. Bishop Cronin applauded the laity of the diocese for their generous response to his plea for the Appeal. He thanks the thousands of parish solicitors who called on fellow parishioners last Sunday. "It is most gratifying to see the whole-hearted support of all peoples. People do want to help people in need. That is what I am trying to do through the various agencies of the Appeal," said the Bishop this morn-

WATERFORD (NC) The Catholic Church needs and must continue to have the most "vigorous press we're able to produce for America today." Its values are so many that no one reason can be given for "Why a Catholic Press?" James Doyle of New York, executive director of the National Catholic Press Association, said 'at a publications and communications seminar at Holy Redeemer College here in Wisconsin. The Catholic press, Doyle said, is the Church's effective tool for communication - and it gathers news, entertains, defends the Church against critics, criticizes Church institutions, provides a forum. "It does a lot of different: things-from helping to fight a
political battle against abortion - helping to arouse Catholic consciences to the violent im· morality of our continued killing in Vietnam-all the way to poster c.ontests for kids and cartoons poking fun at pastors and parish councils." , Under Pressure He quoted Pope Paul VI who said those who practice Catholic journalism must be "heralds of truth, justice and peace," and must Christianize society, reflect things as they are, explain and defend the Church. Doyle conceded that the CathA oli<: press, along with other institutions in the Church, is "under attack and pressure." Circulations have fallen, he pointed out, but the drop is also Turn. to- :Page Eighteen

WASHINGTON (NC)-A Catholic missionary and an Evangelical Clergyman have disputed claims by Rep. Paul M. McCloskey (R-Calif.) that U. S. bombing' in Laos may have destroyed thousands of villages. Oblate Father Matt Menger, who has worked in Laos for 15 years, told newsmen in Washington that McCloskey's views were based on a brief visit to a Laotian hamlet and a few conversations there.' Dr. Nathan Bailey, international president of the Christian and Missiona~y Alliance: told the Los Angeles Press Club that inpreters picked' by McCloskey said the congressman "did .not want the truth; he wanted a campaign issue." , . ' Dr. Bailey returned recently from Indo-China where he and three other American clergymen were refused permission by North Vietnamese officials to visit prisoner-of-war camps.

The six senators who are sponsoring the bill are frank about their intentions-they want' to stimulate the nation's faltering economy. They pointed out that Mexico, long a haven for quickie divorces, has ·rece~tly outlawed them; leaving a billion dollar business up for grabs.

Brother Urges Food Industry To 'Help in War on Poverty MILWAUKEE (NC)-America's food service industry ha~ been told to invest some of its profits in the war against poveerty.

' With Iwealth like that, he said, "the industry' is -.in a position to develop 'an :economic dialogue between an expanding commercial field and the poor and needy , who .. exist despite the affluence of our society.".
These revisions, the bishops commented, "are to be heartily encouraged," because "only thus can 'our educational system resolve the grave social problems with which the country is cpnfronted." The bishops urged Catholics to "consider themselves highly involved" in the school reform effort.

Among the African clergy housed by Dr. Braun was Anglican Bishop Alpheus Zulul of Zululand, one of the. six presidents of the World Council of Churches. Inspectors of the Roodeport Non-White Affairs Department conducted a pre-dawn raid on St. Ansgar's Mission, where the churchmen had been attending a seminar on "Black Theology."

DETROIT (NC)-In.an unusual gathering marked by several "firsts," the nation's Catholic bishops came together recently to give undivided attention to the priesthood and its problems. The agenda for the Spring meeting of the National Confer· ence of Catholic Bishops has been cleared of all routine business so that the almost 290 prelates can get ready for the 1971 international Synod in Rome next' Fall. The focus there will be the same: the world's 440,000 priests and the problems of the priest, hood today, what to do about those who leave, what to do to see that those who stay remain motivated and dedicated. 'The meeting in Detroit is the first' for which the NCCB has set up a generalized agenda. It is also the first that has been preceded by regional conferences of the bishops around the country, a step in decentralization that may become the pattern for the future. Elect Delegates When the NCCB last met, in November 1970 in Washington, the bishops talked of eventually doing away with the semi-annual Spring meeting and replaCing it with 11 regional meetings. By the time the Detroit meeting ends, the bishops will have elected four of their colleagues to go to the Rome Synod as the American delegates. They will also deCide on two priests to accompany the delegation as observers - the way "periti" or experts were on hand during the Vatican II Council of 1962-1965. Nominate Bishops Each Bishop can nominate four bishops to go to the Synod. The 10 who have the most nom-, inations will be listed on a ballot, and the bishops will elect four of those 10. How the two priests will be chosen is unclear. A spokesman for the,NCCB said the method of selecting the two had not yet been worked out. It was possible they would be named directly, without balloting. The NCCB's one-topic agenda " -the Synod and preparation for it - includes world peace and justice along with the priesthood question, just as the Synod agenda does. A valuable and expensive (it cost' $500,000) piece of homework is going into the NCCB meeting with the bishops - a massive three-year study of the ,priestly life and ministry.

Tragic Abuse of Childr,en Found on U.S. Farms Even a quick rereading of the New Testament is likely to impress us with Christ's particular love for children. He always had time for them. He scolded His apostles if they tried to keep the young creatures away. He compared their innocence to "the Kingdom of Heaven" and in trudge back to another backHis long, terrifying indict- breaking day in the cruel fields.

profound concern for the young. If grownups leave the children hungry, shelterless, sick, exploited, they are neglecting Christ Himself. "As you do to the least of these little ones so you do unto Me." It must therefore hurt every Christian conscience if Children are exposed to particular evils. It must do so with especial force in a country like the United States which is enormously rich ~nd thinks of itself as a civilized and \Goc!-fearing place. Yet a recent study by the Friends Service Committee suggests that even in America there are still pockets of the most tragic abuse of the young. Some of the worst evils are in farming where a quarter .of the (largely intermittent and migrant) labor force is under the age 16.
Baby !-abor The Quakers' teams foun'd children stooping and crawling for 10 hours a day during harvest weather of 100 degrees. They found children as young as six years old in such conditions. They found them skipping school to get 'out into the strawberry or potato fields. Some, of course, w~re simply adding to their pocket money. But among the migrants, the children were slaving away to add to totally inadequate family income. Many farm laborers have no idea that they are protected by a minimum wage, of $1.30 an hour and work long hours for much less. In states like California, the Administration is hostile to the legal services that might tell them what jheir rights' are. So the injustice falls back on the child whose labor is needed if the family is to be fed. The Quakers quote cases of 10-yearold children picking potatoes for 11 to 12 hours a day and earning only $4.50. Nor is it simply low wages. The health hazards are considerable. Occupational injuries and disease are in fact higher in agriculture than in in~ustry. Yet California's agricultural labor force includes 100,000' children. "Suffer the little children to come unto Me," says the Lord and in many regions they come exhausted, hungry, covered with dirt, with aching arms and legs and swollen eyes after sleeping huddled up in waterless shacks and rising, again at dawn to
crete instances such as this that the distinction between politics and religion becomes so hard to make. Is it or is it not a Christian concern that child labor laws and minimum wage laws should be first introduced ,and then enforced? Is it or is it not a Christian responsibility to see that those who so delightedly consume the strawberries should be ready when necessary, to give their ·attention to the conditions under which the strawberries are picked? And should the concern be limited simply to the United States? The conditions of child workers on American farms are in fact exceptional and, in the country as a whole, the great majority grow up with health and shelter and schools and opportunities for a full and useful life.

Irreversible Damage In the developing world, on the contrary, the reverse is all too often the reality. We have the official United Nations statistics, drawn from the World and from the Food and Agriculture Organization (F.A.O.) which suggests that at least a third of the world's people are undernourished and modern medical research has made clear how heavily inadequate diets weigh upon the health of the very young. In fact, if' a baby does not receive enough protein in its first year of life, the damage to its intelligence is likely to be irreversible. If a society then exposes these cohorts of deprived' and dimwitted children to the rigors of landless living on the edge of the villages or to unemployment and shanty town life on the fringe of the big cities, they grow up at the base of the social pyramid as a sort of sub-world of irretrievable misery. With their parents they make up at least a half of the developing world's people. These families may by now number nearly two billion souls. We are sometimes inclined to despair at the sc~le of the, prob~ lem. Yet the resources to deal with it are greater than ever before. The real 'tragedy is not simply the extent of misery. It is the unreadiness of the rich nations to take the needed counter measures.

and a great many ,of them are either completely made of gingham checks or trimmed with a contni~ting 'ruffle of gingham. Wear it as a charming scarf on your head, sew',a long and feminine dress of gingham for lazy Summer evenings, or add it to certain areas of your home to, give both you and your house a lift. Gingha!TI has «orne out of the nursery and instead of looking merely girlish it's very 'very sophisticated'. Use at Home While .we are seeing it a lot in clothes, especially the anklelength -dresses ,that will be so popular this Summer, thecllOme is where it looks 'just right. Decorate your' couch with gingham checked pillows (it only talks about a half yard to make a plain pillow, sans ruffle, and 'about 10 minutes of your time at the' sewing machine and anoth~r, 20 or· so .sitting in front or' the TV while you handsew the . open end), make .yourself a tablecloth' to use as a setting for your Summer floral displays, or if you're very talented whip up some gingham cm:tains with a wide ruffle all around. The latter is one of the "must do when r get time" items for our small family room, Joe just painted this tiny room a' very deep shade of blue ,and I'm positive thaJ blue gingham checked curtains would complete the look.

"Mom, I'm sorry to bother you, but the baby just woke up from her nap. She smells awful. I think she has 'diaper-rear.'. It's all over her, and her bed, and everything!" I dragged myself off the' couch, ran a bath, scrubbed the baby and her, crib .. : and the walls . With the baby cleaned up', I , attacked the kitchen. I just' finished doing the lunch dishes, scouring the burnt pot, cooking more vegetables. folding the laundry and setting the table when both mothers arrived-'-escorted by several beaming children. "... and Mommy was so tired, we were all 500000 good. 'We let her sleep all afternoon, while we took care of all the work. Kids should be 'specially good to ~ mother on Mother's Day, right?" That was last year.. Two days ago, one of the children eagerly asked me, "Mom, on .Mother's can we bring you breakfast in bed and do everythir:tg .for.,You?" "Check the calendar. I believe when they decided to move Washington's birthday, they also eliminated Mother's Day... · "Hey, Mom, how come. May 9th is cut out of 'our calendar?"

All the other mothers looked radiant. The priest waxed eloquently on the glories of motherhood. Howd,id he know what it's like to be a mother? He wasn't up all night with a sick baby. After feeding everyone lunch and starting dinner, I was so exhausted I couldn't stay on my feet. In the true spirit of Mother's Day, three of the children offered, "Mom, you lie down and take a nap. We'll take care of everything!" I headed for the couch; my head just touched the pillow. "Mommy, when I run a load of wash,' is it okay to put the baby's red overalls in with the white shirts?" . "Y~u k~ow howt~ sort wash. 'Reds' 'go' in with 'darks.' Now, please just let me sleep for a half hour." Two minutes later, "Mom, tell him. to help me with the lunch dishes 'cause I helped him on his day .so he should help me on my day and he's not and it's not fair!" , "For heavens sake, just do those few dishes without arguing. Please, let me sleep!" , I dozed' off. "Mom, the phone's ringing. Should I answer it?" "Of course, answer it!" Not wanting to' talk to anyone, I went right back to sleep. "It's okay, Mom ... Mom, did you hear me? It's okay. It's for me. u . I relaxed again. The living room was clean; if they just tidied up the kitchen while I napped, I could finish the dinn ... All of a sudden there was a roaring that sounded Ike a plane' warming. its motor right under the couch. "Did I wake you? Oh, sorry, Mom. You go back to sleep. I'll be done vacuuming in a minute." "Why are you vacuuming? It was just done: And what about the dishes?" "Oh, those. Well, I didn't get to doing them yet." Too exhausted to fight, I slept in spite of the noise. "Mommy, wake uo! The vegetables are burning. Should I turn them off?" "Yes, turn them off. I'll cook something else later. Please ..." "Okay, Mom. Now don't you worry about a thing. We'll get it all done." Too beat to worry, I collapsed. "Mommy, you've been asleep I

Facultv Members. at Bishop Connolly High Do Their Part to Improve Fall River Faculty members at Bishop Connolly High' School, Fall River, are doing their part to make the city a better place to live. Evidence of this came last Saturday when Paul J. Roy, Jesuit scholastic at the boys' school, was chairman for a Youth-Law Day sponsored by the Fall River Youth Action Group. Other Connolly teachers have done much to aid the action group, say members, and the school has given facilities for many meetings of the organization. Saturday's all-day 'program was the result of hours of work on the part of many ,students and adults. It opened with a panel on means of bridging the gap that often exists between youth and the adult community. "Action .is needed in this community where' hopelessness seems to prevail," declared Mary Lynn Medeiros, Mt. St. Mary Academy sophomore and one of the panelists. Another participant, Jon Udis, Durfee High School senior, suggested a program under which police officers would hold regu~ lar sessions in secondary schools. "This would be a means of establishing contact with youths before they get in trouble," he said. Atty. Richard LaSalle, also a panelist, declared present drug laws unworkable. "You. can't win a drug case before a jury today," he said. "They see long hair ·and you're guilty before you , start." He not'e<i. that the :"apr , pearance .·barrier" works both; ways, with youths when they see a police uniform, and with officials confronted with long 1IIIIIl"'II",'I,'I'It,'llllllllUlln"UllmlUIlIU;"II'UI'tlllll1IIIIIIIIIIJIIIIIIIII,IlUUlllllllUltllHit

With That I'd Be Satisfied . A Broadway musical currently running illl New York called STORY THEATRE presents a series of fables that have a delightful child·like simplicity while exposing (as fables do) unchanging predicaments of being human. . One such fable tells the story of a poor fisherman who catches the Enchanted Prince Flounder, but throws him back at the tish's verbal request. That evening he learns from his wife that the talking flounder has magicaRpowers, and she sends h~m back to the sea to ask the flounder to change his shabby shack into a little white cottage. And it is done • . • but the fisherman's wife isn't satisfied. Successively she sends her husband back to request a beautiful castle; then to make her King of the land; then to be the Pope and rule over. all kings • . • and it is rlone. Still not satisfied, her last request is to be Lord of the Universe. This the Enchanted Prince cannot grant, and the fisherman and his wife are changed back to their original poverty. Most of us would never go so far as te fisherman's wife, but, in lesser degrees, do we not find ourselves often unsatisfied with what we have or ·who we are? Have we not all seen our names in lights on the marquee of our minds . . . wished to find an Aladin's lamp . . . or dreamed of winning the Grand Sweepstakes! Not being satisfied, however, is good-it can motivate us to change it-it can keep us from being complacent"and indifferent. And it can help us to see ourselves, the world, ~md others in a more realistic perspective. Are we dissatisfied with only our own smaill (often petty) matters, or are we also concerned about the poverty, disease, and suffering of others deprived of so much more than ourselves? Do we make a genuine personal effort to help change the misery of others, or do we sit back, pass the buck, grumble, and wait for some Enchanted Princess to change things? Are we the selfish "wife" in the fable above or &re we Christians? A poor missionary in Asia recently wrote saying, "My people are so poor . . . if I only had the money to build them a small chapel and school and someday a medical clinic, I'd be satisfied." It is for missionaries like this that we turn to you for help, that they may meet the most basic human needs of the .' mission-poor. The help you give can never exhaust the increasing needs of the missions, but each effort is a step forward in bringing others, not just a better life, but the fuillness of . ' life in Christ.
Please help us take another step forward today. Every gift for the missions is important for every gift witnesses to Christ's words, "Happy are those who hunger and thirst for what is right is right; they shall be satisfied." Please ~ct today-elip the coupon below and send your sacrifice now.

, one point' demand tnat the dat~ be turned over to someone who was designate.d by them in order to assure. "objective" analysis. Numerous attempts were made to steal data before the report was m~de, and at least' one attempt was successful. Suspicions about the objectivity of the research staff plagued us from both sides of the celibacy cqntroversy. It was made perfectly, clear by both sides. that any finding that did not concur with ,its' own presuppositions was attributed to "biased" research. ("Biased" research is that' which finds something different from what one knows to, be true even before the i,nquiry begins.) I must give full ~redit to the bishops on the ad hoc committee , that sponsored the study. At no point in .the three years of ~ollaboration before and during the -study did they ever propose anything that was at odds with our professional standards. 'Despite the suspfcions and charges to 'the contrary' from outside' sources, never at any time ~as there a~y attempt to cover up any of the findings of the project; much less was there any effort to dictate the way the report was written or the manner in which it was 'presented. Indeed, the acting director of NORC was moved to say that the bishops' committee was one of the most intelligEmt and sympathetic clients that we have had in a long time. Weapons for Both Sides No ore who does research in highly controversial areas is going to imagine that his report , " be read with patience and understanding; at least he's not likely to think that after, his 'first experience in submitting a reo, port: _ When the parochial school study was done in 1965, I naiveIy thought the data Peter Rossi and I reported would settle the controversy over ' Catholic schools. 1. was rudely surprised to find that riot only did it not settle the controversy; the findings of the report became wea. pons for both' sides. Indeed, The Education of Catholic American's was turI}ed into an inkblot into which any reader could project his own 'Catholic convictions about schools. Even today there are many Catholics who are abso-, lutely convinced that they know what The Education of Catholic

Those of. us who worked on the report 'will be accused alternately of trying to whitewash the hierarchy, or trying to destroy the Cath,olic tradition. You pays your money and you takes your choice. ! But I will say' for the redorct what some of. my impressi'ons are at a time when after two' years of struggling with :the study I would be happy never .. , to hear 0 f It agam. I 1.

On the other hand, then~ is a great deal of strength ~nd vigor left in the American priesthood. Indeed, despite the difficuities and despite the losse~ I have a hunch that there may !be more strength and ~igor th'an there was five years ago (this! is just a hunch; nothing I can' document). There may be a mor~le crisis in the priesthood, and yet on the'measures of psychologital well-being we used in the survey, priests scored substantially high~ er than married, co!1ege-educat~d males in the same 9!?e brackets. In other words, if "lOrale w~s bad among the. clergy it is muth worse among the rest of the population. I These two findings may seem contradictory. On the one hand, it is said that the priesthood h~s serious problems, and on tne other hand, it is said tha ~ tne psychological well.being of the priesthood ,is high. But I thi1'\k it is a paradox rather tha!1 ia contradiction, and ,paradox is the very stuff out of which hope is made.
